    There are some decent moments on this record including, Stolen Car and Learn to fly. After all was ok but felt sort of generic. Same thing with finish line but a lot of this record is Elton trying to appeal to a younger audience. One thing is for certain, Elton does not sound very good when he is drowned in autotune.

    The record is at its best when it's close to an old-fashioned duet album.

    An album that could have easily come off as a millionaire’s vanity project with his rich mates is actually a surprising, creatively rich endeavour.

    It’s all fun, though a little disjointed – and the less said about Elton’s trap song, Always Love You, with Nicki Minaj and Young Thug, the better.
